PINPOINT TEST DL: CYLINDER HEAD TEMPERATURE (CHT) SENSOR

 Introduction
Refer to Wiring Diagrams Cell 024 for schematic and connector information.
Normal Operation and Fault Conditions
The CHT sensor is used to determine the engine coolant temperature. The PCM has a dual switching resistor circuit on the CHT
input. A graph showing the temperature switching from the COLD END
line to the HOT END line, with increasing temperature and back with
decreasing temperature is included. Note the temperature to voltage
overlap zone. Within this zone it is possible to have either a COLD END
or HOT END value at the same temperature. For example, at 90C (194F) the
voltage could read either 0.60 volt or 3.71 volts. Refer to the table
for the expected values.
Voltage values calculated for VREF = 5 volts. These values can vary by 15% due to sensor and VREF variations.
Refer to the DTC Fault Trigger Conditions.

Fault Trigger Condition |
PCM P0116:00 |
Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor 1 Circuit Range/Performance: No Sub Type Information |
Sets when the PCM detects the cylinder head temperature value is higher
than the calibrated value and could prevent one or more OBD monitors
from completing. The PCM
runs this logic after an engine off and a calibrated soak period
(typically 6 hours). This soak period allows the intake air temperature
and the cylinder head temperature to stabilize and not differ by greater
than a calibrated value. This DTC sets when all of the following
conditions are met:
-
The engine coolant temperature at
engine start exceeds the intake air temperature at engine start by
greater than a calibrated value, typically 17°C (30°F).
-
The engine coolant temperature exceeds a calibrated value, typically 107°C (225°F).
-
The fuel system, heated oxygen and misfire monitors have not completed.
-
The calibrated time to set this DTC has expired.
-
Make sure the intake air temperature
and the engine coolant temperature or cylinder head temperature are
similar when the engine is cold. Also make sure the CHT sensor and the actual engine operating temperatures are the same.
|
PCM P017C:00 |
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor 'A' Circuit Low: No Sub Type Information |
Sets when the PCM detects the CHT circuit is shorted to ground.
The DTC P0117 may also be reported when this DTC sets. Either of these Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) illuminates the MIL .
|
PCM P017D:00 |
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor 'A' Circuit High: No Sub Type Information |
Sets when the PCM detects a CHT circuit concern is detected.
The DTC P0118 may also be reported when this DTC sets. Either of these Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) illuminate the MIL .
|
PCM P101F:00 |
Cylinder Head Temperature Sensor 1 Out Of Self Test Range: No Sub Type Information |
This DTC sets when the CHT sensor is out of self-test range. The engine is not at a normal operating temperature.
|
PCM P1285:00 |
Cylinder Head Overtemperature Condition: No Sub Type Information |
Sets when the PCM detects an engine overheat condition was sensed by the CHT sensor.
|
PCM P1299:00 |
Cylinder Head Overtemperature Protection Active: No Sub Type Information |
Sets when the PCM detects an engine overheat condition was sensed by the CHT sensor.
